Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Reactions that build up molecules
A
catabolic reaction
B
anabolic reaction
C
thermal expansion
D
reactants and products
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Anabolic reactions use energy to build complex molecules from simpler organic compounds (e.g., proteins from amino acids, carbohydrates from sugars, fats from fatty acids and glycerol); catabolic reactions break complex molecules down into simpler ones, releasing chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Anabolic reactions are those that “build up” large molecules from smaller ones. Catabolic reactions, on the other hand, are reactions where large molecules are broken down into smaller ones.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endergonic reactions in organisms are called anabolic reactions. These reactions absorb energy and build bigger molecules from smaller ones. An example of an anabolic reaction is the joining of amino acids to form a protein.
